* Okay, first of all, not a big fan of the Brood. They don't appear all that often, but they still seem overused whenever I see them. So that doesn't make me look forward to the next issue too much.
* Poor Carol, apparently William is going to break up with her officially, or so I assume from "I don't want to do this on your voice mail." You know, it looked like something interesting was going to be done with his character at one point. I hope that's still so.
* I do, however, get a chuckle out of the role popular modern tech plays in Carol's life (but at least she doesn't answer her cell phone in the middle of a fight). Doesn't she have a blog, too?
* A title featuring a single character is always better with a strong supporting cast. Machine Man/Aaron Stack is one of the most recent additions, and a real scene-stealer. That said, I'm kind of curious as to why he wanted a LMD in the first place ("It was my signing bonus. The only reason I agreeed to this Lightning Storm nonsense in the first place.") Or possibly I don't want to know. Then again, I don't really know to what degree Aaron identifies as male.
* And speaking of the supporting cast, something interesting is up with Agent Sum! This, I do want to see how it plays out.
* I am really going to miss this artist. Lopresti draws some pretty, pretty people--he can even make Wonder Man look good. Pretty and competent.

Something is up with Agent Sum. It could have something to do with the Brood! They can't just set that thing up where he was basically erased and then instantly healed and then leave it!
